I have been writing poems, tune-deprived lyrics, and random nonsense for almost 40 years now. I had a couple of poems published in anthologies but most of my work remains unpublished and indeed, unseen, by anyone but me. The time has come to share with others and see what people think. My output is divided into two here. Stuff I wrote between 1980 and 1997 when I was, for the greater part of the period drinking alcoholically and writing prolifically, and stuff I have written post 1997 after I left rehab. There is very little in this time period but I'm hoping sharing it may encourage me to write again.
